On May 7th, three determined swimaddicts from Neda el Món successfully conquered the waters separating Europe and Africa, completing the Strait of Gibraltar crossing in 5 hours and 1 minute, covering 15.1 km from Tarifa to Punta Cires (Morocco) with an average water temperature of 17.2°C.
Boris Aleksandroviç Najafov (Azerbaijan) completed the swim without a wetsuit. Stefan Silberberg (Germany) and Miguel Martínez Basurco (Spain) completed the crossing with wetsuit.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the Asociación para el Cruce a Nado del Estrecho de Gibraltar (ACNEG) for their impeccable organisation and collaboration, which were crucial to the success of this crossing. Congratulations to all three for this impressive achievement and for carrying the spirit of Neda el Món beyond borders!
